So, not much has changed since my last update. I'm still having quite a bit of pain; definitely more than I expected to have at this point! I talked to Dr. Jonathan on Monday, and he prescribed a stronger pain medication. The only thing is that I can't drive while taking it, and due to me having to go to work and school, I can only take it at night. Dr. Shawn called me again tonight to see how it was going. I have been taking advil every 4 hours and he wants me to start taking tylenol with the advil and take them every 3 hours. He also wants me to continue the codeine at night so I can get some rest. Hopefully the next few days will go better. I go for a follow-up on Friday morning, so if nothing changes between now and then, I'm sure Dr. Shawn will have some more advice. Their office has been amazing throughout this whole process!
School started back up on Monday, so it's back into the craziness of life! I have a totally different schedule this semester than I had last semester. So far I like it better, but it definitely is taking some getting used to!
